the interesting idea... the start of this project... the conversations to come

I'm a member of Post Crossing, the internet site for postcard exchange. I sent a card to another Post Crosser, Ilona from Germany. She asked that people tell her which magical power they would like to have. Her question really made me think!

In turn, I thought it would be an interesting project to ask people to pose Thought-Provoking Questions. I would do my best to answer with my opinion, and I would encourage others to add theirs.

And, so was born this blog! I hope that it will be the home for many interesting conversations in the year ahead!

Bigger? Smaller?

Cat, from Australia, and her friends were pondering this question over dinner:

If every atom was really a tiny universe, are humans giants or are we also just tiny atoms in a tiny universe making up something infinitely huge?

Well, if the size of our EGOs has anything to do with this puzzle, we are the biggest biggest. I'm kinda hoping for small-ish. I'd like to think of something more immense than the human ego.
